Can I suggest that you don't want to do that on the client side, unless you're 
really trying to build a javascript GIS application. Why pull a lot of data 
and then toss it?

If possible, do a smart query on the server side. There are a few ways to do 
this, but Web Processing Service (WPS) and making the server proxy those 
operations into the service side database would be some things to investigate.
